ANTELOPE, Calif. — A bystander is wounded after being hit in a shooting in Antelope, the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office said Thursday.
The shooting happened around 1:15 a.m. near Watt Avenue and Elverta Road in Sacramento County.
According to Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office Spokesperson Amar Gandhi, the details are sparse, but people in two cars were shooting at each other when a bystander was hit several times.
The bystander was taken to a hospital where they are expected to survive. Their identity has not been released, but Gandhi said they are an adult man.
"He looks completely uninvolved, a completely innocent bystander that just happened to be struck. The two vehicles are what we're still trying to determine, one, who they are and why they were shooting at each other," said Gandhi.
It is not clear how many people were in the cars or how many rounds were fired.
Gandhi says this shooting is unrelated to another overnight shooting in Sacramento County that left an 18-year-old dead.
This is a developing story and it will be updated as more information becomes available.
